I'm adopted, he's in the Air Force, and all we really want is family.
After 8 miscarriages, and one failed adoption, this blog is a journal through infertility, adoption, and now parenthood, now that Isaac has filled our baby carriage, and it's about to be filled again with a surprise, successful (so far) pregnancy!
It's sometimes blunt, sometimes improper, but always real. This is our story.

Goodbye Christmas

Now that the holiday season is officially over, the lights came off the house today, and I think tomorrow the other decorations will begin being put away. It was an emotional holiday season, both joyous and full of sorrow. Great things were celebrated like our anniversary, a wonderful time with family, my sister in laws wedding and more. But there was also grief that came with knowing we lost another child, and that my husband was at the end of his line when it came to fertility treatments. It doesn't mean that we won't have a child, we will, but I will never have a little boy with my husbands amazing eyes, or his crooked jaw that made me fall in love with him. That will be a sadness I forever hold in my heart.

This sounds DELICIOUS!! I love getting this one dairy's strawberry milk in a glass bottle ... it's so yummy, not too strong of a flavor. I bet I'd like this kind, but I don't recognize the carton, so I am not sure they carry it here. I'll be on the look-out next year!
